Bracketing Systems

I wouldn't consider myself a fundamentalist. I enjoy the economics, but it isn't very useful as a trader. Takes too long to work itself out. TA is all bullshit. Traders use TA as an excuse to do things in the market, but unless a great number of ...

From 10 seconds to 24 market hours. Depends how fast prices move.

How long do you hold your position..?

In theory, but I would never try it.

Why professionals "only" make ~30% anually

Sorry, I didn't mean to imply I was ever in a dealing room. I trade on an institutional platform from home, so I can see real pricing. And all my reference points are in USD unless otherwise specified. Several of the events I referenced were ...

I actually moved prices myself once. I put a $2m limit order on between the spread durring the asian session and moved Oanda's price by 1 pip. I pulled it out because it was taking too long to execute and oanda instantly dropped back a pip. I was so ...

I believe there is something called "its TOO simple stupid". Not really, I just made it up. Anyway, this is a disaster in the making. If you use reasonable stops your winrate drops to zero due to the loss bias introduced by the spread. With a 5 ...

I managed to close out a trade from yesterday. It took no less then 4 bounces within 1 pip of my tp before it executed. One of them was .3 pips. Stupid partial pip nonsense. The real trade on currenex closed on the first dip.

The ebs data you site is good, but they arrive at those numbers mathmatically. Using "average depth" it would only move that much, but liquidity is not distributed evenly across all prices. Most traders on here trade without any regard to liquidity ...

I use the oanda charts. They are so good, I would be willing to venture that oanda is using currenex for upstream hedging.

Anyone trading live with ODL Securities and EFX Group?

You should read "the way of the dollar" before you get too deeply into this subject. I ripped it off a p2p network if i recall. Just look around and you'll find it somewhere.

Fundamental Analysis

I've watched billion dollar orders hit the market and the effect they have on prices. The forex market isn't anywhere near as big as it seems. And your right about the lower leverage. That was the point. At 100:1, you can make a 1% return on 1 pip. ...
